3.10 Setup of hard drives other than Seagate Ultra SCSI models
Generally speaking, the basic setup must be as following :
Drive Termination Disable
Termination Power from the SCSI bus
Parity Enabled
Write Protect (if any) Disabled
Others jumpers or switches : default position should be OK
In order to get the best performance in video/audio recording DOREMI Labs has selected the Seagate
Ultra SCSI family because these drives offer the best performance currently available on the SCSI-2 bus
and are validated to support 4:1 compression with a single drive and the audio only insert capabilities.
Operation and performance with drives from other sources (Micropolis, IBM, Fujitsu...) must be checked
on the V1 by the user; DOREMI LABS in this case cannot guarantee the full operation or performance. In
case of technical problems, please inform DOREMI Labs with a full description of what has been noticed.
3.11 Notes on JAZ cartridges
Some precautions need to be followed with the JAZ cartridges :
Eject them before any transportation or before switching off the V1
Don't use them in case of condensing (Humidity going into water drops), this may produce error while
record or play !
In case of bad sectors on cartridges, you can test them with Win95 Surface Scan or any low level utility
software like FWB Hammer for Mac.
